Minuscule 626 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), α 1010 (von Soden),[1] is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament, on parchment. Palaeographically it has been assigned to the 10th century. The manuscript is lacunose.[2] Tischendorf labeled it by 159^a.[3]

Description

The codex contains the text of the Acts, Epistle of James, and First Epistle of Peter on 84 parchment leaves (size 15.9 cm by 10.6 cm), with lacunae (Acts 1:1-5:29; 6:14-7:11). The text is written in one column per page, 22 lines per page.[2]

It contains double Prolegomena, tables of the κεφαλαια before each book, numbers of the κεφαλαια at the margin, the τιτλοι at the top of the pages, Lectionary markings at the margin, and subscriptions at the end of each book. Scholia, whose authors' names are given, were added by a later hand.[3][4]

Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[5]

History

Formerly it was known as Basilian 7. The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Johann Martin Augustin Scholz, who slightly examined the manuscript. Gregory saw the manuscript in 1886.[4]

Formerly it was labeled by 159^a. In 1908 Gregory gave the number 626 to it.[1]

The manuscript currently is housed at the Vatican Library (Vat. gr. 1968), at Rome.[2]

gollark: Interesting. I'd expect that to be CPU-constrained. And also cached in RAM

gollark: The read/write performance boost is dubiously useful for most applications.

gollark: Still probably worth it.

gollark: I bought a 240GB SSD when they were still £80.

gollark: Although I doubt JEI is very resource-intensive and you somewhat need it.
